You would have to build for each specific version of the kernel. If you

which a symlink in the appropriate version's module directory will do if
the headers are installed.

fglrx now supports DKMS? (sorry...been a LONG while since I last used an
ATI card)

the fglrx monitors for new kernels and when you install a new one it
looks for the kernel headers and uses them. same for if you installed
every single kernel the normal repositories have available. its not
doing that for the kernel/ppa kernels.
